Culture
How the sixteen values appear in film, TV, books, music, myth, history, and art.
Amour
Michael Haneke's unflinching study of a husband's devotion to a wife dying of a stroke. Love as the willingness to witness and not turn away.
The Royal Tenenbaums
A family bound by flawed, complicated devotion - people who couldn't stop caring about each other despite doing it badly.
Up
The first ten minutes of Up tell a complete story of devotion. A man whose entire life was organized around one relationship.
Into the Wild
Seen from the other side: the devotion of the family left behind, unable to stop loving someone who needed to leave.
Still Alice
A family's devotion to a woman who is losing herself to early-onset Alzheimer's. Constancy when the person you love is slipping away.
Marriage Story
The end of a marriage between two people who still love each other. Devotion's complicated terminus - the people you have loved most completely are the ones who can hurt you most specifically.
